I'm trying to allow a particular iSCSI VLAN to be available to all hosts.. but also to
a few select VMs.
Im finding this challenging, since prior to now, I did host iSCSI config on the host-local
level.
i used the cockpit GUI to create a "VLAN" entity, assigned it to an interface,
and then configured an IP address.
But when I attempt to create a "network"(/aka VLAN) entity from the main
hosted-engine level.. it seems to conflict with prior host-local created ones.
and when I remove the host-local entries...
I no longer seem to have a way in the GUI to create IP addresses for the host, from host
cockpit?
It recognises that the entity exists, but put it in the "unmanaged" section.
So.. how can I handle this best?

This should be straightforward from within engine gui. No need to mess with
cockpit. At networks you add a network and tag it with required vlan. Flag
the network as VM network, so as to become available for guest VM use. Then
at each host, at the network management interface of the host, you drag the
new network at the needed physical interface. Repeat same for all hosts and
you're done.

New subject: best way to have storage vlan available to host AND vms?
Not quite done.
How do I then assign a host-level IP address in the VLAN?
I did mention i need it for both VM use, and host level use.

Forgot to mention that you can set host ip at that same vlan through the
same host network management interface. There is a pencil icon where you
click and configure what you need. Sorry no screenshots at the moment.

AH, I cant believe I didn't notice that before!
yup, in the engine GUI, under...
Hosts -> (specific host, click on it)
Network Interfaces -> [Setup Host Networks ]
and then AFTER I have dragged the desired new network/VLAN over to a specific
interface...
Then a little pencil icon appears on it, and I get to set up IP address, etc.
Thank you, this seems to be exactly what I needed :)
